Abstract
A system and methods for monitoring work processes. Once example computer-implemented method includes recording a three-dimensional work trajectory. The work trajectory comprises a representation of the actual motion of one or more markers. The method further includes comparing the work trajectory to a work template. The work template comprises a representation of the desired motion of the one or more markers. The method further includes sending a success indication to a display when the work trajectory is similar to the work template and sending a failure indication to the display when the work trajectory is dissimilar to the work template.
Claims20
A work-process monitoring system, comprising:
- two or more cameras;
- a display;
- one or more markers;
- and
- a computing device, comprising:
- one or more processors for controlling the operations of the computing device;
- and
- a memory for storing data and program instructions used by the one or more processors, wherein the one or more processors are configured to execute instructions stored in the memory to:
- record a three-dimensional work trajectory, using the two or more cameras, wherein the work trajectory comprises a representation of the actual motion of the one or more markers;
- compare the work trajectory to a work template wherein the work template comprises a representation of the desired motion of the one or more markers;
- send a success indication to the display when the work trajectory is similar to the work template;
- and
- send a failure indication to the display when the work trajectory is dissimilar to the work template.
